This option of specifying a different domain isn't used anywhere as of
now and we don't have a concrete way it could be used in the near
future. It's also getting in the way of how we want to do rate limiting
by IP, for which we'll want to apply a new domain 'api_by_ip'. That's
incompatible with how this decorator wants to determine the domain based
on the argument it receives when called to decorate a view function.
If in the future we want to have more granular control over API domains,
this can be refactored to be more general, but as of now it's just
imposing restrictions on how we can write the rate limiting code inside
it.
In addition to event filtering, we add support for registering supported
events for a webhook integration using the webhook_view decorator.
The event types are stored in the view function directly as a function
attribute, and can be later accessed via the module path and the view
function name are given (which is already specified the integrations.py)
Note that the WebhookTestCase doesn't know the name of the view function
and the module of the webhook. WEBHOOK_DIR_NAME needs to be overridden
if we want exceptions to raised when one of our test functions triggered
a unspecified event, but this practice is not enforced.
all_event_type does not need to be given even if event filters are used
in the webhook. But if a list of event types is given, it will be possible
for us to include it in the documentation while ensuring that all the
tested events are included (but not vice versa at the current stage, as
we yet not required all the events included in the list to be tested)
This guarantees that we can always access the list of all the tested
events of a webhook. This feature will be later plumbed to marcos to
display all event types dynamically in doc.md.
JsonableError has two major benefits over json_error:
* It can be raised from anywhere in the codebase, rather than
being a return value, which is much more convenient for refactoring,
as one doesn't potentially need to change error handling style when
extracting a bit of view code to a function.
* It is guaranteed to contain the `code` property, which is helpful
for API consistency.
Various stragglers are not updated because JsonableError requires
subclassing in order to specify custom data or HTTP status codes.
This avoids calling parse_user_agent twice when dealing with official
Zulip clients, and also makes the logical flow hopefully easier to read.
We move get_client_name out of decorator.py, since it no longer
belongs there, and give it a nicer name.
This ensures it is present for all requests; while that was already
essentially true via process_client being called from every standard
decorator, this allows middleware and other code to rely on this
having been set.

In `validate_account_and_subdomain` we check
if user's realm is not deactivated. In case
of failure of this check, we raise our standard
JsonableError. While this works well in most
cases but it creates difficulties in handling
of users with deactivated realms for non-browser
clients.
So we register a new REALM_DEACTIVATED error
code so that clients can distinguish if error
is because of deactivated account. Following
these changes `validate_account_and_subdomain`
raises RealmDeactivatedError if user's realm
is deactivated.
This error is also documented in
`/api/rest-error-handling`.
Testing: I have mostly relied on automated
backend tests to test this.

Using web_public_guest for anonymous users is confusing since
'guest' is actually a logged-in user compared to
web_public_guest which is not logged-in and has only
read access to messages. So, we rename it to
web_public_visitor.
For users who are not authenticated, we don't need to 2fa them,
we only need it once they are trying to login.
Tweaked by tabbott to be much more readable; the new style might
require new test coverage.
These represent known errors in what the user submitted. This is
slightly complicated by UnsupportedWebhookEventType being an instance
of JsonableError.
allow_webhook_access may be true if the request allows webhook
requests, regardless of if it only used for a webhook integration.
Only actually log to the verbose webhook logger if it is explicitly a
webhook endpoint, as judged by `webhook_client_name`. This prevents
requests for `POST /api/v1/messages` from being logged to the webhook
logger if they mistakenly contain a `payload` argument.
This argument does not define if an endpoint "is a webhook"; it is set
for "/api/v1/messages", which is not really a webhook, but allows
access from webhooks.
This clears it out of the data sent to Sentry, where it is duplicative
with the indexed metadata -- and potentially exposes PHI if Sentry's
"make this issue public" feature is used.
The previous link was to "extended callable" types, which are
deprecated in favor of callback protocols. Unfortunately, defining a
protocol class can't express the typing -- we need some sort of
variadic generics[1]. Specifically, we wish to support hitting the
endpoint with additional parameters; thus, this protocol is
insufficient:
```
class WebhookHandler(Protocol):
def __call__(request: HttpRequest, api_key: str) -> HttpResponse: ...
```
...since it prohibits additional parameters. And allowing extra
arguments:
```
class WebhookHandler(Protocol):
def __call__(request: HttpRequest, api_key: str,
*args: object, **kwargs: object) -> HttpResponse: ...
```
...is similarly problematic, since the view handlers do not support
_arbitrary_ keyword arguments.

`zulip.zerver.lib.webhooks.common` was very opaque previously,
especially since none of the logging was actually done from that
module.
Adjust to a more explicit logger name.
Any exception is an "unexpected event", which means talking about
having an "unexpected event logger" or "unexpected event exception" is
confusing. As the error message in `exceptions.py` already explains,
this is about an _unsupported_ event type.
This also switches the path that these exceptions are written to,
accordingly.
Before this the only way we took advantage
of the summary from UnexpectedWebhookEventType
was by looking at exc_info().
Now we just explicitly add it to the log
message, which also sets us up to call
log_exception_to_webhook_logger directly
with some sort of "summary" info
when we don't actually want a real
exception (for example, we might want to
report anomalous webhook data but still
continue the transaction).
A minor change in passing is that I move
the payload parameter lexically.
We eliminate optional parameters and replace `request_body`
with `payload`.
There is much less confusion if we just pass in `payload`,
and then we optionally re-format it if it's json.
For unclear reasons the original code was trying to
do `request_body = str(payload)` when `request_body`
was no longer being used.
It's never safe to access the mock RemoteZulipServer object; this
caused exceptions on every request in production for any server with
ZILENCER_ENABLED=False.
Django always sets request.user to a UserProfile or AnonymousUser
instance, so it's better to mimic that in the tests where we pass a
dummy request objects for rate limiter testing purposes.
The data is now stored in memory if things are happening inside tornado.
That aside, there is no reason for a comment on a rate_limit_user call
to talk about low level implementation details of that function.
I can find no evidence of it being possible to get an Exception when
accessing request.user or for it to be falsy. Django should always set
request.user to either a UserProfile (if logged in) or AnonymousUser
instance. Thus, this seems to be dead code that's handling cases that
can't happen.
Since bug https://bugs.python.org/issue3445 was resolved in Python
3.3, we can avoid the use of assigned=available_attrs(view_func) in
wraps decorator (which we were only using because we'd copied code
that handled that from Django).
Also available_attrs is now depreciated from Django 3.0 onwards.
These weren’t wrong since orjson.JSONDecodeError subclasses
json.JSONDecodeError which subclasses ValueError, but the more
specific ones express the intention more clearly.
(ujson raised ValueError directly, as did json in Python 2.)

The exception trace only goes from where the exception was thrown up
to where the `logging.exception` call is; any context as to where
_that_ was called from is lost, unless `stack_info` is passed as well.
Having the stack is particularly useful for Sentry exceptions, which
gain the full stack trace.
Add `stack_info=True` on all `logging.exception` calls with a
non-trivial stack; we omit `wsgi.py`. Adjusts tests to match.
In a decorator annotated with generic type (ViewFuncT) -> ViewFuncT,
the type variable ViewFuncT = TypeVar(…) must be instantiated to
the *same* type in both places. This amounts to a claim that the
decorator preserves the signature of the view function, which is not
the case for decorators that add a user_profile parameter.
The corrected annotations enforce no particular relationship between
the input and output signatures, which is not the ideal type we might
get if mypy supported variadic generics, but is better than enforcing
a relationship that is guaranteed to be wrong.
This removes a bunch of ‘# type: ignore[call-arg] # mypy doesn't seem
to apply the decorator’ annotations. Mypy does apply the decorator,
but the decorator’s incorrect annotation as signature-preserving made
it appear as if it didn’t.

There seems to have been a confusion between two different uses of the
word “optional”:
• An optional parameter may be omitted and replaced with a default
value.
• An Optional type has None as a possible value.
Sometimes an optional parameter has a default value of None, or None
is otherwise a meaningful value to provide, in which case it makes
sense for the optional parameter to have an Optional type. But in
other cases, optional parameters should not have Optional type. Fix
them.

Since production testing of `message_retention_days` is finished, we can
enable this feature in the organization settings page. We already had this
setting in frontend but it was bit rotten and not rendered in templates.
Here we replaced our past text-input based setting with a
dropdown-with-text-input setting approach which is more consistent with our
existing UI.
Along with frontend changes, we also incorporated a backend change to
handle making retention period forever. This change introduces a new
convertor `to_positive_or_allowed_int` which only allows positive integers
and an allowed value for settings like `message_retention_days` which can
be a positive integer or has the value `Realm.RETAIN_MESSAGE_FOREVER` when
we change the setting to retain message forever.
This change made `to_not_negative_int_or_none` redundant so removed it as
well.
Fixes: #14854
We want a clean codepath for the vast majority
of cases of using api_get/api_post, which now
uses email and which we'll soon convert to
accepting `user` as a parameter.
These apis that take two different types of
values for the same parameter make sweeps
like this kinda painful, and they're pretty
easy to avoid by extracting helpers to do
the actual common tasks. So, for example,
here I still keep a common method to
actually encode the credentials (since
the whole encode/decode business is an
annoying detail that you don't want to fix
in two places):
def encode_credentials(self, identifier: str, api_key: str) -> str:
"""
identifier: Can be an email or a remote server uuid.
"""
credentials = "%s:%s" % (identifier, api_key)
return 'Basic ' + base64.b64encode(credentials.encode('utf-8')).decode('utf-8')
But then the rest of the code has two separate
codepaths.
And for the uuid functions, we no longer have
crufty references to realm. (In fairness, realm
will also go away when we introduce users.)
For the `is_remote_server` helper, I just inlined
it, since it's now only needed in one place, and the
name didn't make total sense anyway, plus it wasn't
a super robust check. In context, it's easier
just to use a comment now to say what we're doing:
# If `role` doesn't look like an email, it might be a uuid.
if settings.ZILENCER_ENABLED and role is not None and '@' not in role:
# do stuff
Instead of trying to set the _requestor_for_logs attribute in all the
relevant places, we try to use request.user when possible (that will be
when it's a UserProfile or RemoteZulipServer as of now). In other
places, we set _requestor_for_logs to avoid manually editing the
request.user attribute, as it should mostly be left for Django to manage
it.
In places where we remove the "request._requestor_for_logs = ..." line,
it is clearly implied by the previous code (or the current surrounding
code) that request.user is of the correct type.
Previously, get_client_name was responsible for both parsing the
User-Agent data as well as handling the override behavior that we want
to use "website" rather than "Mozilla" as the key for the Client object.
Now, it's just responsible for User-Agent, and the override behavior
is entirely within process_client (the function concerned with Client
objects).
This has the side effect of changing what `Client` object we'll use
for HTTP requests to /json/ endpoints that set the `client` attribute.
I think that's in line with our intent -- we only have a use case for
API clients overriding the User-Agent parsing (that feature is a
workaround for situations where the third party may not control HTTP
headers but does control the HTTP request payload).
This loses test coverage on the `request.GET['client']` code path; I
disable that for now since we don't have a real use for that behavior.
(We may want to change that logic to have Client recognize individual
browsers; doing so requires first using a better User-Agent parsing
library).
Part of #14067.
Since essentially the first use of Tornado in Zulip, we've been
maintaining our Tornado+Django system, AsyncDjangoHandler, with
several hundred lines of Django code copied into it.
The goal for that code was simple: We wanted a way to use our Django
middleware (for code sharing reasons) inside a Tornado process (since
we wanted to use Tornado for our async events system).
As part of the Django 2.2.x upgrade, I looked at upgrading this
implementation to be based off modern Django, and it's definitely
possible to do that:
* Continue forking load_middleware to save response middleware.
* Continue manually running the Django response middleware.
* Continue working out a hack involving copying all of _get_response
to change a couple lines allowing us our Tornado code to not
actually return the Django HttpResponse so we can long-poll. The
previous hack of returning None stopped being viable with the Django 2.2
MiddlewareMixin.__call__ implementation.
But I decided to take this opportunity to look at trying to avoid
copying material Django code, and there is a way to do it:
* Replace RespondAsynchronously with a response.asynchronous attribute
on the HttpResponse; this allows Django to run its normal plumbing
happily in a way that should be stable over time, and then we
proceed to discard the response inside the Tornado `get()` method to
implement long-polling. (Better yet might be raising an
exception?). This lets us eliminate maintaining a patched copy of
_get_response.
* Removing the @asynchronous decorator, which didn't add anything now
that we only have one API endpoint backend (with two frontend call
points) that could call into this. Combined with the last bullet,
this lets us remove a significant hack from our
never_cache_responses function.
* Calling the normal Django `get_response` method from zulip_finish
after creating a duplicate request to process, rather than writing
totally custom code to do that. This lets us eliminate maintaining
a patched copy of Django's load_middleware.
* Adding detailed comments explaining how this is supposed to work,
what problems we encounter, and how we solve various problems, which
is critical to being able to modify this code in the future.
A key advantage of these changes is that the exact same code should
work on Django 1.11, Django 2.2, and Django 3.x, because we're no
longer copying large blocks of core Django code and thus should be
much less vulnerable to refactors.
There may be a modest performance downside, in that we now run both
request and response middleware twice when longpolling (once for the
request we discard). We may be able to avoid the expensive part of
it, Zulip's own request/response middleware, with a bit of additional
custom code to save work for requests where we're planning to discard
the response. Profiling will be important to understanding what's
worth doing here.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

This change serves to declutter webhook-errors.log, which is
filled with too many UnexpectedWebhookEventType exceptions.
Keeping UnexpectedWebhookEventType in zerver/lib/webhooks/common.py
led to a cyclic import when we tried to import the exception in
zerver/decorators.py, so this commit also moves this exception to
another appropriate module. Note that our webhooks still import
this exception via zerver/lib/webhooks/common.py.
We create rate_limit_entity as a general rate-limiting function for
RateLimitedObjects, from code that was possible to abstract away from
rate_limit_user and that will be used for other kinds of rate limiting.
We make rate_limit_user use this new general framework from now.
The github-services model for how GitHub would send requests to this
legacy integration is no longer available since earlier in 2019.
Removing this integration also allows us to finally remove
authenticated_api_view, the legacy authentication model from 2013 that
had been used for this integration (and other features long since
upgraded).
A few functions that were used by the Beanstalk webhook are moved into
that webhook's implementation directly.
Add `max_int_size` parameter to `to_non_negative_int()` in
decorator.py so it will be able to validate that the integer doesn't

This should make it easily for mobile/terminal apps to handle
situations like the user's API key changing.
Also fix the fact we were incorrectly using a 400, not 401, status
code for this case.
This should make it possible for blueslip error reports to be sent on
our logged-out portico pages, which should in turn make it possible to
debug any such issues as they occur.
We should rate-limit users when our rate limiter deadlocks trying to
increment its count; we also now log at warning level (so it doesn't
send spammy emails) and include details on the user and route was, so
that we can properly investigate whether the rate-limiting on the
route was in error.
The code paths for accessing user-uploaded files are both (A) highly
optimized so as to not require a ton of work, and (B) a code path
where it's totally reasonable for a client to need to fetch 100+
images all at once (e.g. if it's the first browser open in a setting
with a lot of distinct senders with avatars or a lot of image
previews).
Additionally, we've been seeing exceptions logged in the production
redis configuration caused by this code path (basically, locking
failures trying to update the rate-limit data structures).
So we skip running our current rate limiting algorithm for these views.
A key part of this is the new helper, get_user_by_delivery_email. Its
verbose name is important for clarity; it should help avoid blind
copy-pasting of get_user (which we'll also want to rename).
Unfortunately, it requires detailed understanding of the context to
figure out which one to use; each is used in about half of call sites.
Another important note is that this PR doesn't migrate get_user calls
in the tests except where not doing so would cause the tests to fail.
This probably deserves a follow-up refactor to avoid bugs here.
Apparently, there was a bug in notify_bot_owner_on_invalid_json, where
we didn't reraise the JsonableError.
We fix this with a refactoring that makes the exception layering
clearer as well.
There are only a handful of non-JSON webhooks that wouldn't
benefit from the notify_bot_owner_on_invalid_json feature.
Specifically, these are the webhooks where the third-party product
uses another format, whether it be HTML form-encoded, XML, or
something else.
Tweaked by tabbott to correc the list of excluded webhooks.
Our webhook-errors.log file is riddled with exceptions that are
logged when a webhook is incorrectly configured to send data in
a non-JSON format. To avoid this, api_key_only_webhook_view
now supports an additional argument, notify_bot_owner_on_invalid_json.
This argument, when True, will send a PM notification to the bot's
owner notifying them of the configuration issue.
The previous message was potentially a lot more ambiguous about
whether this was something about presence. "Deactivated" makes it
explicit that some action was taken to deactivate the account.
These decorators will be part of the process for disabling access to
various features for guest users.
Adding this decorator to the subscribe endpoint breaks the guest users
test we'd just added for the subscribe code path; we address this by
adding a more base-level test on filter_stream_authorization.
We've already got a bunch of other comments on work we need to do for
this decorator and an open issue that will ensure we at some point
rework this and add tests for it. In the meantime, I'd like to lock
down the rest of decorator.py at 100% coverage.
Fixes#1000.
This exception class was clearly missing the part where `role` gets
stored, which was intended to be inherited from
InvalidZulipServerError.
This fixes an unnecessary 500 error in the push notifications bouncer.
This completes the effort to ensure that all of our webhooks that do
parsing of the third-party message format log something that we can
use to debug cases where we're not parsing the payloads correctly.
In this commit:
Two new URLs are added, to make all realms accessible for server
admins. One is for the stats page itself and another for getting
chart data i.e. chart data API requests.
For the above two new URLs corresponding two view functions are
added.
This extends the /user_uploads API endpoint to support passing the
authentication credentials via the URL, not the HTTP_AUTHORIZATION
headers. This is an important workaround for the fact that React
Native's Webview system doesn't support setting HTTP_AUTHORIZATION;
the app will be responsible for rewriting URLs for uploaded files
directly to add this parameter.
This fixes a regression in 93678e89cd
and a4979410f9, where the webhooks using
authenticated_rest_api_view were migrated to a new model that didn't
include setting a custom Client string for the webhook.
When restoring these webhooks' client strings, we also fix places
where the client string was not capitalized the same was as the
product's name.
Many declarations were previously annotated with
Callable[..., HttpResponse]; this is equivalent to ViewFuncT, so here we
switch to it.
To enable this migration, the WrappedViewFuncT alias is removed; this is
equivalent to the simple & legible Callable[[ViewFuncT], ViewFuncT], so
for relatively no space change, a clearer return type is possible.
Originally was going to centralize this in zerver/lib/request.pyi, but this
file is not visible at run-time, being only a stub. The matching request.py
file seemed inappropriate, as it doesn't actually use ViewFuncT.
Webhook functions wrapped by the decorator:
@authenticated_api_view(is_webhook=True)
now log payloads that cause exceptions to webhook-errors.log.
Note that authenticated_api_view is only used by webhooks/github
and not anywhere else.
The name `create_logger` suggests something much bigger than what this
function actually does -- the logger doesn't any more or less exist
after the function is called than before. Its one real function is to
send logs to a specific file.
So, pull out that logic to an appropriately-named function just for
it. We already use `logging.getLogger` in a number of places to
simply get a logger by name, and the old `create_logger` callsites can
do the same.
Because calls to `create_logger` generally run after settings are
configured, these would override what we have in `settings.LOGGING` --
which in particular defeated any attempt to set log levels in
`test_settings.py`. Move all of these settings to the same place in
`settings.py`, so they can be overridden in a uniform way.

ValueError: string argument should contain only ASCII characters
This gets used when we call `process_client`, which we generally do at
some kind of login; and in particular, we do in the shared auth
codepath `login_or_register_remote_user`. Add a decorator to make it
easy, and use it on the various views that wind up there.
In particular, this ensures that the `query` is some reasonable
constant corresponding to the view, as intended. When not set, we
fall back in `update_user_activity` on the URL path, but in particular
for `log_into_subdomain` that can now contain a bunch of
request-specific data, which makes it (a) not aggregate properly, and
(b) not even fit in the `CHARACTER VARYING(50)` database field we've
allotted it.
The only place this attribute is used is in `update_user_activity`,
called only in `process_client`, which won't happen if we end up
returning a redirect just below. If we don't, we go and call
`add_logging_data` just after, which takes care of this already.
This won't work for all call paths without deeper refactoring,
but for at least some paths we can make this more direct -- function
arguments, rather than mutating a request attribute -- so it's easier
to see how the data is flowing.
